que system seem dead

after 12am PDT

when im trying to que for normal dungeons it seems like no1 is queuing for them or any dungeon at all when its past 12am PDT

Most people usually go to bed around that time meaning that there are less people to play with especially if you're DPS.
Also "que" is a Spanish word for "what" as well as others, queue is the right word.

Also most just Hunt now....... ; ;

Yep was on today when the server is usually empty all I saw was people doing hunts and nobody queuing was waiting at least 45 mins for DF as Sch.

You're trying to play at extremely low-population hours, on a weekday to boot.

Not really a surprise.

True dat - but you're forgeting that DF is matching accross servers se it still pair you with players from other regions / time zones (indeed on the same data centre). To speed up matching in DF (at least duering "dead" hours) you can also select all languages and Join in progress option.

No, I remember it. To my memory though, the Data Centres are still localized based on intended player location - NA servers are grouped with other NA servers, EU servers are with other EU servers, JP servers are with other JP servers. Realistically, the time zone/region difference is only a couple hours at most - midnight PDT is still only 3AM on the east coast. We're still well within the hours for lowest population on these servers.

But yes, opening up more languages and enabling Join In Progress can help.

Combination of hunt and people saying "segregated servers are 100x better." So some time frames are more dead than other.

And there's the fact that toxic DPS players have essentially made Tanks and Healers feel like they should stop doing dungeons altogether.

It's not like we dont have enough tanks and healers. According to a recent poll 48% of the players are tanks and healers, which means 52% are DPS. It's just that they got bullied so much that they dont seem to care about running dungeons with others anymore, and why should they if random DPS #573 is just going to shout at them because he/she felt the need to blame someone for standing in a instant-kill attack.

In my experience, tanks have been the most "toxic" in that sense, but I'm not going to go round saying that all tanks are jerks, because that's just stupid.
